Who wrote the poem 'In Flanders Fields' in 1915?

  1. Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

  2. Winston Churchill

  3. Ernest Hemingway

  4. Wilfred Owen

The correct answer is: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

'In Flanders Fields' was written by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae in 1915. Incorrect options include Winston Churchill, Ernest Hemingway, and Wilfred Owen. While Churchill and Hemingway were both famous writers, they did not write 'In Flanders Fields' in 1915. Wilfred Owen, although a poet in World War I, did not write the poem until 1918, three years after 'In Flanders Fields' was published. Therefore, A is the only correct answer.
